Hands from past to future

In this project, I engage with a robot in a simple yet profound act: the robot outlines my hands, a gesture reminiscent of prehistoric cave art, where early humans left handprints as a form of self-expression and identity. This project draws a parallel to how young children in kindergarten outline their hands, an act that fosters self-awareness and individuality.

This interaction with the robot reflects our digital era, emphasizing the relationship between human creativity and technological tools. The robot, rather than being an autonomous entity, serves as an extension of my own artistic capabilities. This allows me to simultaneously outline both hands, a feat that symbolizes the enhanced abilities provided by technology. The robot, as my tool, becomes an integral part of the creative process, highlighting the human mind’s control and direction in the artistic journey. This project is a powerful statement about the use of technology not as a replacement for human creativity, but as a means to augment and expand our artistic expression.
